Ingredients
  

2 cups of plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup of full-fat coconut milk (canned for added creaminess)

1/4 cup of honey or maple syrup (adjust according to desired sweetness)

Zest of 1 large lemon

1/4 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice (approximately 2 medium lemons)

1/2 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract

1 cup of unsweetened shredded coconut

A pinch of fine sea salt

Instructions
 

Prep the Mixture: In a spacious mixing bowl, blend together the plain Greek yogurt, coconut milk, and your choice of honey or maple syrup. Add the lemon zest, fresh lemon juice, pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Use a whisk to mix thoroughly until the mixture is silky smooth and all ingredients are well combined.

    Incorporate Coconut: Carefully fold in the unsweetened shredded coconut using a spatula. Ensure that the coconut is evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture without deflating it.

      Prepare for Freezing: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, which will help in removing the drops easily once frozen.

        Form Drops: With a tablespoon or a small ice cream scoop, drop generous spoonfuls of the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Make sure to space them about an inch apart to allow for any slight spreading as they freeze.

          Freeze: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer, allowing the drops to freeze for at least 2-3 hours or until they are solid and have a delightful frozen texture.

            Store and Serve: Once the bliss drops are thoroughly frozen, move them into an airtight container or a resealable freezer bag for optimal storage. When you're ready to enjoy a treat, simply take out the desired number of drops from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes. This allows them to soften slightly for the perfect indulgence.
